    Sure, no problem.  I'll tell you what, I'll commit the linux scripting
    patch to 5.x on wednesday as originally planned, but since the SMP MFC
    is being moved to friday (at the very least) I will not MFC the scripting
    patch to 4.x until friday.  ( That is, what I really want to do is to do
    the SMP MFC and the scripting MFC at the same time so people only have
    to recompile their kernel modules once.  It happens to work out
    well ).
